When I ordered this there were some mixed reviews with this new (as of July 2023) version working on macs. I figured Sandisk is a big brand, and Best Buy will let me return anyway, so what’s the risk?
It’s been fine on my Mac as a Time Machine target and for data storage. I’ve used it a lot in the month or so since I bought it and have zero complaints with the drive.
The only minor complaint that I have is that it only has an old style USB-A cord. Seems like it would have only cost Sandisk a few cents to include a short USB-C to USB-C cable, and a lot of people only have long cords which get in the way with such a tiny drive.
That’s all I could find wrong, it’s a great little drive and very good value for the money. I will buy this one again when I need another one.

This SanDisk drive is the best value, highest quality portable storage device made in 2024. The sequential read performance (800 MB/sec). USB 3.2 (Gen 2), and 3-year warranty are unmatched. Don’t bother trying to find a better deal then this anytime soon!

Very compact. Fast and reliable. SanDisk has always been a favorite of mine. This small portable SSD drive is no exception. I am using it as a back up drive as well as a storage drive for my PC/XBox games.

Sandisk 2Tb SSD

Overall, an excellent value external ssd! Plug and play and fast speeds! Used it as large capacity "thumb drive". Literally stuck it to the lid of my laptop with a command strip and wired all day. Capacity is more than enough for my needs and I love the fact it doesn't need external power like my current HDD back up drives!

Stable, Reliable backup for critical files

I keep a handful of these around to back up on a regular basis my personal files (including correspondence) that matters (for example, budgets, billings, medical information, etc). With a need to keep things both in a format that still includes printed materiel plus the digital files (in case something happens), it's a good idea to get the new SSD Drives in a large enough size to be able to keep the files in a stable form (I've verified always that the files are what they should be).
It's quiet, easy to connect to your laptop/2-in-1/desktop, easy to transfer the files (and quick too), and it's easy to verify the file sizes/types as well. So far, so good. No problems with any files failing (this includes backing up my security system video files).

I recently purchased the SanDisk 2TB, and I am absolutely thrilled with its performance and reliability. Setup was a breeze — my system recognized the device immediately with no need for extra drivers or complicated steps.
✅ Exceptional capacity: 2TB of space lets me store a huge amount of photos, videos, documents, and more without worrying about running out of room.
✅ Impressive speed: transferring large files is quick and smooth — I can access high-resolution videos with no lag or interruptions.
✅ Reliable durability: the sturdy build gives me confidence, perfect for frequent travel or everyday use.
✅ Compact design: lightweight and small, it easily fits into my bag or backpack — great for work or on-the-go.
Overall, the SanDisk 2TB provides an excellent balance of massive storage, speed, and dependability. I highly recommend it to anyone who needs high-quality external storage. Thank you, Best Buy, for the fantastic product and service!

Nice portable drive that I use for backups.
I do wish it had the USB-C to USB-C cable with the C/A adapter like the one I purchased years ago for work.
This one comes with USB-A to USB-C cable.
And a word of advice if you purchase your own USB-c to USB-C cable. Make sure it's rated for high speed data transfer; some cables are more intended to be used as charging cables. I shopped around on-line and Best Buy had the best price.
